I have an R5 Mark II with a bad USB C port (won't charge, won't connect/tether, and when it does, it's sporadic) Paid UPS $275.00 to have it shipped next day and insured for value, plus the $275.00 that Canon charged up front to look at the camera, o...

The cables that have been working up until last week no longer work. I use 240watt-rated cables for PD charging, I use the approved USB to AC adapter for the R5 Mark II when the camera is overhead, and a Tethertools 10g cable when tethering. All of...

You are absolutely right and not sure how I missed it. I actually found this setting 1 week ago while I was on vacation and wondering why it wasn't working on one of my VCM lenses and went through the menus more thoroughly. Not sure how I missed it ...
